Fabian reviewed The Hidden Life of Trees by Peter Wohlleben
Review of 'The Hidden Life of Trees' on 'Storygraph'
Borrowed this from Libby on a whim.
A tad too much wishful thinking and anthropomorphism for my liking. You can tell the author sees his forest's beeches like his own darling children. I admire his passion, but to me, claiming that plants have feelings and such very much diminishes how informative this book would be otherwise.
Still, I appreciated the information on the Wood Wide Web, which I intend to do more reading on.
